Proactive threat hunting with Talos IR

Cisco Talos outlines a proactive threat hunting methodology built on the PEAK (Prepare, Execute, Act with Knowledge) framework, highlighting baseline hunts to establish normal activity, hypothesis-driven hunts to test targeted assumptions, and model-assisted hunts leveraging machine learning; integrated with Talos Threat Intelligence and supported by IR Retainer services, the approach enables early anomaly detection, real-time adaptation of hunts, and rapid escalation to incident response when active threats are identified.
